Listen Carefully For Your Scream

The Scream
I heard a scream from within, one that shook the foundations of a dungeon that I didn’t know existed in my mind…
Piercing, intense, cutting with precision through my many shields of pretense…
A Scream that I heard before but wasn’t sure…
A Scream that said: “I Can’t Take It No More”!!
A Scream that rode on the Wings of My C-o-n-s-c-i-e-n-c-e…
A Scream which through its Agony, I heard the Feeble and Battered words that spoke of this being my Last Chance…
Chances are, that this Scream, which I thought belonged to others, was Mines all the Time…
A Scream that smacked my denial around and shook the grounds under me…
A Reality SCREAM…
A Scream of urgency that I feel blessed to have finally heard…
A Scream that I needed…
Deep from within, guided by an ancient source to awaken me…
Listen carefully for your S-C-R-E-A-M, pray it doesn’t come to late…
